Five years after his first session for The Influences, Tyler Ramsey joined us at the same TakeRoot festival and recorded a new one, with covers of Ron Sexsmith's Tell Me Again and Neil Young's Sail Away and his own We Were A Small Town. That song is from his new stunning Phil Ek produced record New Lost Ages.

'That sounds like me in there.'

‘I didn’t latch on to Neil Young until I was already in college. But I feel like I’ve got a similar kind of voice. My voice has, I don’t know what it is about it, but sometimes when I hear people sing, I’m like: “Oh, that sounds like the way my voice works.” Physically, it just comes out through my nose, or I don’t know what it is.’

‘So, I felt that about Neil Young. I felt that the first time I heard Mark Kozelek. I heard that from the other room, and I was like, “That sounds like me in there.” But I love Neil Young. I’ve gotten to play shows with him. With Band of Horses, we got to tour with him. So, I got to do the Bridge School Benefit and stuff like that.’

‘And this song, Sail Away, I started doing earlier this year. I was touring with an artist named Leslie Stevens from Los Angeles. She’s a fantastic singer and guitarist and songwriter. I just thought with her voice, that would be a good song for us to do together. So, we were doing that as a duo or as a three-piece. I had my friend Brian playing pedal steel too.”
